Yes, Thief is coming to the next Xbox

Because why wouldn't it be?

Surprise! Thief is definitely in development for the next Xbox, judging by comments made by the game's senior level artist.

Eidos Montreal's Simon Pichette states that the game is in development for "PS4 / Xbox720 / PC" on his LinkedIn profile, despite publisher Square Enix having only confirmed the game for PC, PlayStation 4 "and other next generation consoles".

Thief is the third third-party title for Microsoft's next-gen Xbox to be outed by developer CVs, following similar blunders made by two Ubisoft developers earlier this month.
